Correct.
When I run an optimal power flow afterwards, on which criterion ist the
optimization based?
It simply becomes a problem of finding a feasible solution.
I´m guessing the calculation is then a conventional power flow obeying also the
inequality constraints. Is that correct?
Almost ... in a conventional power flow, the power injection and the voltage
magnitude at each generator bus is specified. In the OPF it both are only
constrained by upper and lower bounds. You could set the bounds to your
specified PG and VG values if you wanted, then it would be what you describe.
